  • These Works Reflect on the Stock Photography Company Getty's Dominance in the Market, Capitalization, and Control of Images On
    PRESS RELEASE Berlin, September 10, 2019. Property Artwork by Paolo Cirio. These works reflect on the stock photography company Getty’s dominance in the market, capitalization, and control of images on the Internet. The series adopts the semantics of appropriation art through transforming images into compositions of colored shapes and texts, which overlay with the prints of the original photos appropriated from Getty’s websites. Property examines images as a form of capital accumulation, bound by intellectual property laws, trade agreements, legal contracts, and litigations. Getty aggregates images from public archives, agencies, and photographers; then it repackages them with legal terms to exclusively license and sell millions of photos. Images become an asset and a revenue stream, with Getty Inc becoming a monopoly and a gatekeeper of photos (see gettyimages.com, photos.com, images.com, etc). To dominate the economy of images at a time in which the Internet allows easy reproduction and sharing, Getty Images Inc aggressively controls and polices the use of photos through extensive legal threats and litigations. While limiting access, Getty Images Inc, acquires archives and collections by any means and strikes agreements with search engines and publishers to lure viewers to their sites. These often deceptive and aggressive business practices are necessary for Getty to gain control over the market of photos. With the series Property, White House, Cirio found historical photographs of U.S. presidents in the public domain that Getty Images Inc. licenses and sells on their platform. This series questions the use, trading, and ownership of photo archives through utilizing direct evidence of Getty’s deceptive marketing of public domain images.

Simultaneously with this process, the process of transition of photography into a mass-produced good has taken place. Market demands towards photography as a product of mass consumption often reduce the aesthetic and artistic standards that have been set by its develop- ment period in the process of photography coming to life as a medium. Despite the negative eff ects that accompany the transition of photography in its process of transformation into a mass-produced good, even such photographic “products” are able to encourage to a particular activity and ultimately generate revenue for numerous industries standing in the background of the “photography-product”.

  • Instructional Program Review Spring 2014
    Laney College Photography Department Instructional Program Review Spring 2014 Peralta Community College District Core Data Elements See Attachment A The Instructional (Academic Affairs) Program Review Narrative Report 1. College: Laney College Discipline, Department or Program: Photography Date: March, 2014 Members of the Instructional Program Review Team: Steve Lomba and Diane Rosenblum, with assistance from Franklin Avery, Black Moon, Joan Bobkoff, Dean Freeman, Mike Mejia and Mike Moya, under the direction of Matthews Jackson and Felix Robles. 2. Narrative Description of the Discipline, Department or Program: I. Industry overview: Photography is a nineteenth century medium playing an increasingly central role in twenty first century culture. What was a slow, intensely technical and laborious process a century ago is now readily available in a smart phone. According to businessinsider.com, Facebook users are uploading 350 million photographs a day. The photographic image is overtaking the written word as the medium through which we comprehend the world. To understand the aesthetics of photography is to understand how meaning is communicated in our society. For the professional commercial photographer or artist, a deep grounding in the history, theory and techniques of photography are essential as well for a viable career. The photographic industry has undergone great change since the Laney photography department was founded just after World War Two, and especially since the current facility was constructed in 1968. In addition to the explosion of general interest in photography, the move to digital technologies has changed how photographs are taken, processed and presented. The field of fine art photography has grown from a few specialized galleries and museum collections in the 1970s into a large, vibrant market with many galleries, collectors, fairs, and lively museum programs.

The series draws on a wealth of dynamic research agendas, from Internet and new media scholarship to research into bio-sciences, environmentalism and the sociology of consumption.

Imagine being able to take photographs of anything you want and then turn around and make money from those photos indefinitely! I’m talking photos from your family vacation, shots you snapped right before digging into a delicious plate of food, or pictures of your dog on a daily walk. This is what stock photography is – a simple way to sell photos from your everyday life. You take pictures of whatever you want and submit them to a stock photo website. From there, photo buyers can purchase the use of your image, and you get a royalty from each sale. The same photo can sell over and over, so sales can really add up over time. The best part is, once your photo is up on a stock site, you literally don’t need to do anything else except watch the royalties roll in! It’s the beauty of passive income – all the work is done on the front end of the process, and then you can sit back and relax.

  • Software Filters, Porn, Pics, and the Internet Content Conundrum
    FILTERING THE FUTURE? : SOFTWARE FILTERS, PORN, PICS, AND THE INTERNET CONTENT CONUNDRUM BY Christopher D. Hunter A THESIS IN COMMUNICATION Presented to the Faculty of The Annenberg School for Communication in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts 1999 On behalf of the Faculty of the Annenberg School for Communication and the University of Pennsylvania, we hereby accept this thesis: ______________________________________________________ W. Russell Neuman, Ph.D. Thesis Supervisor ______________________________________________________ Joseph Turow, Ph.D. Member of Thesis Committee THE ANNENBERG SCHOOL FOR COMMUNICATION UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA 1 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis could not have been completed without the help of a great many people. First and foremost I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. W. Russell Neuman, for guiding me into the area of public policy and political economy. More than a professor, Dr. Neuman is friend and mentor who has taught me that diplomacy matters as much passion. Dr. Joseph Turow graciously accepted to be my second reader, and provided me with wonderful access to his research on families and the Internet. Dr. Hugh Donahue provided great moral support and help rating web sites. I would also like to thank Dr. Carolyn Marvin for helping to shape my thinking about the history of pornography and free speech. Several Annenberg students were also very helpful, particularly in testing web sites and helping with data analysis. Jennifer Stromer-Galley and John Bracken were real troopers in agreeing to content analyze 20 or so web pages, many with rather controversial content. Kirkland Ahern's statistical prowess was absolutely essential in analyzing my content analysis data.
